BRAFA Art Fair

BRAFA is one of the most prestigious art fairs in Europe; an exceptional 8-day event in which rare works, ranging from antiquity to the twenty-first century, are exhibited in a refined setting at Brussels Expo. Since 1956, the year of its creation, its taste for excellence has contributed to its constant evolution. Over time, it has grown, internationalized, and changed venues several times without losing its charm, pursuing one simple objective: to offer the most qualitative of art fairs in order to satisfy the desires of collectors in search of treasures.
Each year, 130 international galleries occupy the 21,000 m² of Brussels Expo’s Halls 3 and 4. Be it ancient or modern painting, tribal art, jewelry, silverware, or design, the most qualitative galleries in each specialty are carefully selected for each edition.
In 2025, the 70th-anniversary exhibition, BRAFA will take place from January 26 to February 2.

With a layout that focused on the human experience and an international cultural programme capable of generating debate on current issues, the event attracted skilled industry professionals and a large community of design enthusiasts.
As we await the Salone del Mobile 2025, here are the highlights of the latest week, including the latest products, installations, Talks and Round Tables, and exclusive performances.

3daysofdesign

Since its inception in 2013, Signe Byrdal Terenziani has facilitated the growth of the design community in her role as Managing Director. It all began as a small design event held in an old warehouse in Nordhavn, a harbour area overlooking Copenhagen’s waterfront. Four Danish brands launched the event as a joint initiative: Montana, Erik Jørgensen (now owned by Fredericia Furniture), Anker & Co, and Kvadrat. At that time, Copenhagen lacked a proper design festival, since the previous annual furniture fair at Bella Center closed down some years before.
Today, the 3daysofdesign festival extends to the entire city of Copenhagen and is considered the most significant annual design festival in Scandinavia.
Join the fair next year to experience more exceptional work at the 12th installment of 3daysofdesign, taking place in Copenhagen from June 4 to 6, 2025.
